About Encellin
Encellin is a biotechnology company developing a proprietary cell encapsulation technology to deliver cell-based therapies for chronic diseases. The company's approach involves a novel thin-film cell encapsulation device that protects and houses cells, enabling them to function as 'living medicines' within the body. This technology is designed to treat conditions where cells are missing, damaged, or diseased by transplanting functional cells.
Encellin's initial focus is on endocrine disorders, with the goal of providing long-term treatment solutions and potentially curative therapies. The company's business model is centered on advancing its technology through clinical trials and securing regulatory approval. Having recently closed a significant financing round of $9.9 million, Encellin is well-positioned to further its research and development efforts. The company was founded based on technology developed at the University of California, San Francisco.
